i honestly dont see why people get so pissed off when they see this. Its not being racist or anything its just a little fun animation. As everyone can see, neither side one. So stop freaking yelling about which one is better.
Hanukkah is the celebration of the Maccabee's victory over the Romans and the dedication of the Temple that was destroyed by Antiochus Epiphanes. Without Hanukkah there would be no Christmas or Christians. Had Antiochus wiped out all the Jews there would have been no Jewish Messiah named Yeshua (Jesus). Yeshua celebrated Hanukkah in the Temple John 10:22. We have much to celebrate. Thank a Jew for Christmas this year.
No offence to anyone-just got this in an email with this linked to it. Christians spend millions of dollars in electricity bills every December for Christmas lights, Jews actually save money by using candals. There are many ways to say Chanukkah, Chanukah, Hanukka etc. there is only one way to say Christmas.
OMFG that was awsome! thers only one thing i think that missed, the jewish ships should have snipped off the end of one of the christmas ships all bris style :D 5star!
Sorry but hanukah is nothing compared to christmas. Nothing beats a cold christmas morning with a blazing fire.The decorations the food the lights. Honakah just seems dull in comparison.
It's like arguing whether apples or oranges are tastier. You're confusing your own beliefs/tastes with fact. But that's what religion teaches, so I'm not surprised!
This is so cool, good idea, and i get the message you are sending...This is the way people should show their opinions, and protest, and not with violence, and flaming others!
Great animation and models idea especially seeing you did it all yourself.
I thought the iraq comment on the end was kind of random. (not saying I disagree or agree with it, just saying it was kind of out of place).
by the way, I KNOW that you made this video in 3dsMax, so I'm not going to ask you how you made it. Even if I didn't know, i could figure this out by reading a few of the comments. :)
yeah... dude the war in Iraq does actually make more sense then that, and that battle actually makes some sense, The Jewish and Prodastant religion has disagreed for about as long as they've both excisted, and there have been religious wars for less. but... nice try
Something people seem to miss a lot is that this is not a religious war, it is a holiday war. An irreverent exchange between ships shaped like Christmas trees, and derides. Not ships shaped like crosses, and while yes there is a star of David used as the Hanukahn (not Jewish) capital ship, it is largely because of how difficult it is to make a cool looking warship out of a menorah.
OK, about the song, i was the one who supplyed it to "iosys" ...alex needed a song to go along with it, i had one, its from trans-siberian orchestra... ft metalica, he made it so we could win the door decorating contest, and we did, we mounted a laptop and speakers....XD
Iosysomega: Interesting piece. I would like to see a longer version instead of just random shots, too.
Amethyst2kNeon: Whatever they call it, the music is still based on the traditional song known as Carol of the Bells (or Ukrainian Bell Carol).
And yes, TSO used the music in their video clip "Christmas Eve And Other Stories - Christmas Eve in Sarajevo". (It wouldn't surprise me if on their CD, they called it something like "Sarajevo".)
When I'm holding the CD I bought in a music store in my hands and am listening to it and it says Savatage Dead Winter Dead, then I'd say it's Savatage.
Go to the Savatage website under multimedia, then audio and the Trans-Siberian website (under biography, then their album 'The Ghosts of Christmas Eve') to verify that Sarajevo 12/24 was indeed done by Savatage/TSO.
Please do your homework before making a fool of yourself.
Actually, the song is from Savatage. The album is Dead Winter Dead and the song itself is Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12-24). Still, great animation. Awesome stuff.
:D well done on this vid, awesome :D loved the colour schemes representing the 2 sides, and loved the death-star style weapon of the hanukkah capital ship :D
what's wrong with this picture? i'll tell you what's wrong... some people think it's offensive... but it's not even offensive in any way!! god... what's wrong with people and their minds these days about their religion?
This is way too cool!! Both sides where equally stong... <3 4
i would rate it high but there were 2 things wrong 1 we all know christmas would win second of all i dont think a hippie liberal could make that good of flash
What an amazing idea! I was wondering what the world was coming to--using an intergalactic battle as a metaphor for Christmas/Hannukah--when the surprise ending came along. I enjoyed the second viewing more, and especially liked the way the colored lights were handled. Kudos to the creators/producers! (To my mind, there is nothing anti-Jewish or anti-Christian in the clip.)
I thought of that. While I was making it, I brought up questions about the possibility that people might be offended. Jewish friends of mine who where contributing ideas would say things like "We don't mind."
I had tried to include some kind of menorah, but it was the hardest image to turn into a spaceship.
I really can't see how this can be seen as anti Jewish. I mean, the 2 fleets have equal power, they take equal losses, and it ends in a message of peace and tolerance.
its not like christmas won or anything . . . at best itd be streotypical and even then it really isnt since its using the star of david whihc is the faith that celebrates hanukkah . . . . and sleds whihc is used with santa in celebrating christmas
maybe you shoudl have used a menorra instead ofa star of david and itd have been fine otherwise i cant see it since i liek ti and its a nice bit of animation
I think it's great, I don't get any anti-anything from my view of it-antiwar, I suppose. Perhaps a comment on silliness of people freaking about Christmas trees and Hanukkah symbols being carefully checked for equivalent prominence in public spaces?
You idiot.... its not...i could explain further, but it would be a wait of time on you...and anyway READ...Christmas Versus Hanukkah not, christian vs jew...both suffered the same losses, and....why didnt anyone say "ant-christian" hmmm?
It's ridiculous that anyone could be offended by this. It's a light hearted bit of humour, and the ending was even made a statemate. Nicely animated by the way. Too bad everyone has been to pissed about how offensive this is and failed to comment on the animation itself.
i honestly dont see why people get so pissed off when they see this. Its not being racist or anything its just a little fun animation. As everyone can see, neither side one. So stop freaking yelling about which one is better.

I think that you have missed the point all together and both, ought to be ashamed!
The point is not about the lights, the money or even food!
It's about the Power,Love and UNDESERVED GRACE of G-d!
It's no wonder the world looks at Jews and Christians and laugh! You give them such great material to work with!
I hear the view from the kneeling position gives a much better prospective. You might try that this HOLY Season!
